I love the idea that anyone who thinks things through and comes to a conclusion different than what the straight-down-the-middle-afraid-to-have-an-opinion mainstream hockey press is a "troll."

Are yo high? My lord tell me you are high because I can’t think of another reason for the mindless, senseless rabble you just posted..

I’m taking the side of the main stream hockey press now? πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ they are all saying β€œtoo early to pick a winner” and so on. I’m flat out telling you to enjoy your coke head defensive liability who can’t win a faceoff..

I’m also flat out telling you that your opinion on this team that should of never been placed there in the first place and trade are that of some deranged Football fan who thought an arena would be a nice place to cool down from the desert heat (cause ice is cold) and started to like the game 5 years ago.. now has found a platform to spread his β€œknowledge” to the masses..

Like I said before I was an Alex fan.. hell I just tried to sell you autographed collection of his πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ and I’m even sad to see him go but when you do research and use your brain aside from one 30 goal year which is looking like a fluke Domi is the better all around player and actually has a drive to get better.. not just snort blow

While I am unsure if they are contenders for a cup I would think they won't be as bad as they were this past season.

They made a good deal in getting Galy for Domi. Hopefully they aren't quite done yet and they have a couple moves in the off-season.

It's a bad trade. Montreal needs centers, they traded one away. Montreal needs scoring, they traded the better scorer away.

Goals last three years
Domi - 36
Galchenyuk - 66

- ImThatGuy


yeah well keep looking at the past stats like everyone always does... Domi is everything a hockey club search in term of dedication to the game, and Galchenyuk is the complete opposite... i'm pretty dam sure MB was looking for a young top Center but they don't come to often so... Domi can score 20 goals seasons playing with the right player... he's a pretty good passer and make people around him better... so i'm not worried about the goal scoring stuff.... young player like Lehkonen Hudon and Scherbak can fill the net and they will probably have more ice time with Galchy gone.. Summer ain't over !

I think they'll be better as well, but that defense still needs a lot of work. It looks impressive on paper name-wise, but the production isn't there.

I agree. I'm hoping they show up and I'm willing to give them 20 to 30 games to show last year wasn't the real version.

Well they can’t get much worse...and eventually with all the high end picks they have to improve at some point. I think they be better but still not contenders.

I think Tanner's point was that he tries to come up with opinions and articles that are a little different from what all the other mainstream media comes up with and sometimes that means he's a little out there. He still wants to be correct and tries to back his opinion up with some data, but there's always risk he's gonna face criticism because he actually tries to pick a stance that is slightly controversial since it will actually be interesting.

He gets blasted by people that think he's wrong because he isn't saying the same thing as everyone else and he also gets blasted by guys like you that think he's on the wrong side of the argument altogether.

At least the guy is willing to make a genuine opinion on things instead of taking the safe, "only time will tell how this trade works out folks!" or "I think this is a solid hockey trade that will benefit both clubs!" generic statements you often find when ever something goes down in the hockey world.

I often disagree with Tanner, but he is always worth reading because I know he's going to provide a different perspective from what I'll read elsewhere.

P.S. I don't think he actually even lives in Arizona. He just got a job to write about them, so he ran with it and eventually came to genuinely like their team.

I guess we'll see how Gally and Domi do this season with their new teams. I was under the impression Galchenyuck was the better player, but I'll admit I don't watch either that much, so maybe you have the right of it and Domi will flourish in Montreal.
